 Nickelodeon has greenlit a live-action television movie adaptation of one of its most popular animated series, The Fairly OddParents, it was announced today by Marjorie Cohn, President, Original Programming and Development, Nickelodeon/MTVN Kids and Family Group. A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up, Timmy Turner!, based on the hit series from creator Butch Hartman, will combine live-action with CG animation and follow the adventures of a now 23-year-old Timmy Turner (Drake Bell, Drake & Josh) who refuses to grow up in order to keep his fairy godparents. A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up, Timmy Turner! is set to premiere on Nickelodeon in 2011, and will be executive produced by Hartman and Lauren Levine, co-executive produced by Scott MacAboy, directed by Savage Steve Holland and written by Hartman and series’ former writer Scott Fellows (Big Time Rush)

A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up, Timmy Turner! centers on Timmy Turner, but unlike the series, Timmy is no longer a 10 year old boy — he is 23, still lives at home and still attends the 5th grade! Timmy’s arrested development stems from his desire to keep his beloved fairy godparents, Cosmo (Jason Alexander, Seinfeld, as live-action Cosmo and Daran Norris, The Fairly OddParents, as animated Cosmo) and Wanda (Cheryl Hines, Curb Your Enthusiasm, as live-action Wanda and Susanne Blakeslee, The Fairly OddParents, as animated Wanda), because “Da Rules” dictates that godchildren lose their fairies when they grow up. But when Tootie, (Daniella Monet, Victorious) a formerly nerdy girl who’s always had a crush on Timmy, returns to town as a gorgeous grown-up, Timmy finds himself having very adult feelings for her. He must decide whether to grow up and be with the woman he loves, or continue acting like a child to keep the fairy godparents he adores. In the meantime, Hugh J. Magnate (Steven Weber, Wings, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip), a larger than life oil tycoon, turns his attention to capturing Timmy’s fairies and using their power to fuel his maniacal ambition.
 
 

hahahahahaha look at that dude! hahahaha 

Ugggggghhhhhhh

Yeah, seeing as their last attempt to take a cartoon and make it live action turned out so well...

Hahahaha. Oh Drake Bell... I can understand why you'd want to do the movie, but man you are too old for this role!  
 
It's kind of hilarious that he's clearly over 20 and the rest of the kids look like they're about 8.

Dude looks embarrassed

I'll just stick toe the cartoon then, thanks for the warning. 
There's no rage here though, what do we look like, teenagers? 

Wait a tick, people care enough about Fairly Oddparents to get upset that they're making a movie out of it?

Fucking hell, I used to watch this all the time when I was younger. Ugh, live action, seriously?

After seeing that picture, I now see how ridiculous it is for Timmy to be wearing all that pink to school.

" After seeing that picture, I now see how ridiculous it is for Timmy to be wearing all that pink to school. "

Yeah...no

Yes. YES. I will rent this and will thoroughly enjoy laughing at it.
 
Plus, hopefully Alex and Matt will take it upon thmeselves to cover the midnight screening. That would be fun.

Ah, yeah. Well, if I had any interest in the movie, maybe I would have read the article. I was never a fan of the show. My bad.

I can't wait for this movie!

I want to see it just to see how everything looks. 
 
But on the other hand...
 
 

Stop this damn Live action crap. No one fucking likes it. 

Wow, Bad idea?

But when Tootie, (Daniella Monet, Victorious) a formerly nerdy girl who’s always had a crush on Timmy, returns to town as a gorgeous grown-up, Timmy finds himself having very adult feelings for her. He must decide whether to grow up and be with the woman he loves, or continue acting like a child to keep the fairy godparents he adores.

As long as they keep the semi-adult references, it could be good.

I just...what?!?

Is that supposed to be AJ in the back? Also, no....no no no no no no no no no.

Wait.. I think I might know someone in this.

" I want to see it just to see how everything looks.

I am totally going to watch this. Jason Alexander as Cosmo?! Sold!

What the...

I kind of want to watch it just because it seems such a weird and potentially terrible idea.

This makes me feel old

what wha-? Huh? What the hell is-? Wha-?

I like the show but seriously the plot sounds so stupid.

Hit the iron while the iron's ice cold cus it cooled off like 8 years ago.

May the gods save us all...

The plot of this sounds unbelievably stupid. Timmy is now 23 and still attending grade school? Tootie comes back as a gorgeous grown up?! Timmy starts to have "adult" feelings!?! JASON ALEXANDER IS PLAYING COSMO!?!?!

What on Earth gave them the idea that live action was a good idea. Why not have an animated movie, then it wouldn't look so stupid.

Magic is evil and practiced by satanists. Therefore this movie is pure evil and should be banned. BANNED I SAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for ruining a good cartoon. What the fuck are they thinking?

" What on Earth gave them the idea that live action was a good idea. Why not have an animated movie, then it wouldn't look so stupid. "

after i heard Cosmo gave birth I proceeded to stop watching the show. The original episodes were great though, I have to say. 

Shit.

I was fine with this until I saw the plot....
